Edinburgh International Film Festival

88 Lothian Road, Edinburgh

This two-week celebration of cinema kicks off the busy summer festival season in Edinburgh in some style with gala premieres and talks from visiting directors. It has attracted some world-class films in the past and in 2012 was famously the site of the European premiere of Disney-Pixar’s Scottish-set animation Brave. It also attracts a steady stream of celluloid buffs, film writers, directors and famous film stars. One legendary visitor was Quentin Tarantino, who is said to have rated Edinburgh as one of his favourite film festivals. Various venues, Edinburgh.
